Mythology

In this context, mythology means stories about gods and other supernatural beings. In the Bible we find traces of the mythology of the ancient Near East. These traces are found mainly in the following forms:

  • references to mythology;
  • imagery that comes from the mythology;
  • stories that have a parallel with certain myths.
